Basic Components of Plumbing
Water Supply System:
This system provides the delivery of drinking water and other water needs into the building. The main components used in the water supply system are as follows:
Main Water Inlet: The point where water from the city network or a private water source enters the building.
Water Meter: Used to measure the amount of water entering the building. The water meter allows water consumption to be monitored and billed correctly.
Water Pipes and Valves: Water is delivered to various areas within the building through pipes. Water pipes are usually made of PVC, copper or steel materials. In addition, various valves are used to cut or turn on the water.
Waste Water System:
Waste water carries the dirty water (sink, toilet, shower, kitchen, etc.) coming out of the building. The healthy operation of the waste water system is very important in maintaining hygienic environments. The components of this system:
Waste Water Pipes: These are the pipes that carry dirty water out of the building. These pipes are usually made of PVC or concrete materials.
Toilet Connections and Siphons: These are equipment that allows waste to be quickly transferred to the sewer in homes and workplaces.
Rainwater Drainage System: It ensures that rainwater is collected from the roof and exterior surfaces of buildings and disposed of appropriately.
Hot Water System:
Hot water supply is very important for comfortable living in buildings. The main components used in this system are:
Water Heaters (Water Heater, Combi Boiler, Central Heating Systems): Water heaters are devices that bring water to a certain temperature. Central heating systems are used to distribute hot water throughout the entire building.
Hot Water Pipes: These are pipes that allow hot water to be carried from the heater to various areas.
Ventilation and Odor Protection Systems:
Ventilation systems are used to balance the air pressure in wastewater pipes and prevent bad odors from spreading to interior spaces. These systems are usually carried out through ventilation pipes placed on building roofs.
Purification and Filtration Systems:
Water purification systems can be used to improve the quality of drinking water. These systems use various filtering methods to remove pollutants and harmful substances from water. Purification devices are used especially to ensure that water is healthy and clean.
